President's Welcome

Greetings! Most visitors land here from a search page so, by way of orientation, let me give you a quick snapshot of USDLA. Then at the bottom of this panel, you can click on the blue Welcome button and on that page I’ll have a bit more information for you.

Our association has been around a long time. In fact, USDLA had been working to advance distance learning for more than a decade before the Web was invented! How is this possible? Easy. At its core, our expertise is about teaching and learning – not about technology. Our members engage learners in K-12, higher education, corporate, telehealth, military and even home schools. If you have a need or interest in one of those areas, then you have come to the right place. Welcome!
